7,500km cycled across North America (cycling around the world update #6)
I’m trying to become the first transgender person to cycle around the world. I made it to the end of the first leg of my journey, cycling 7,500km from Vancouver to Montreal, and now I’m headed to Europe. But I couldn’t escape North America without a few last mishaps at the airport.

Hit by a car while cycling around the world, still pedaling (cycling around the world update #5)

I’m trying to become the first transgender person to cycle around the world. I got hit by a car, had my gear infested by rollie pollies, got visited by raccoons, and had to source a bunch of broken bike parts to fix my bike. I’m still en route. Let’s talk about it. Note: I am currently posting behind schedule. If you have advice, recommendations or a place to stay please check and reach me on I...

    You'll have to make it to the west coast if you want to get past MAGA land. We have the opposite problem out here lol. Plus, canyonlands.. man if you're biking around the world and canyonlands/grand escalante/grand canyon aren't on your list, you definitely need to add em if possible! I've been all over the USA, done a lot of traveling, there isn't another spot as grand, ancient and beautiful as that region of the country. Basically anywhere in the box between yellowstone and the grand canyon, the western rockies to las vegas. check it out on google maps, you can see that region from space and its totally, totally worth a side trip.

    In May I got sideswiped by an SUV. Broke my collarbone and a couple ribs, and I only mangled a pedal and bent a crank. Her insurance company said her vehicle wasn't worth the cost of the repairs so they totalled it. How many cyclists can say they took out an SUV? Anyway, Im glad you pulled through ok. Be safe out there, my friend!

      Good afternoon from Sweden, regards to you thinking that my profile picture is cool … you are either extremely kind, extremely blind, or perhaps both.🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for the explanation of transgender, I googled it, but the answer was pretty vague. What you’re doing is amazing, you can be extremely proud of yourself, even if you decided to quit today, you’re awesome!!! Look after yourself, and I will keep following your journey. Neil.

    Hi Robbie, good job cycling around the world. I've watched your video's, you have much experience with touring . In one of your video's you talk about drive trains, and having tried them all. You even say that you've had problems with all of them, shimano, sram, and Rohloff. What made you choose the Rohloff hub for this trip ? I'm asking you because I also want to cycle the world, hopefully you will have time to reply ? Kind regards, Neil.

    • @dirtdroprobbie
      @dirtdroprobbie Месяц назад

      Hey Neil! They all have their pros and cons but a Rohloff lasts much longer and generally fails gracefully - as in you can usually find opportunities to pedal for a bit longer before it’s completely broken because it’s designed that way, whereas if your derailleur bends or snaps, chances are you need to buy a new one immediately, and you may or may not successfully get it to single speed depending on what frame and cassette you have

    Two genders, that's not being hateful or bigotry. It sounds like you are the one who is obsessed with trying to make others accept transgenderism. Its not a phobia to not accept something other than male or female. You seem to judge conservatives, yet don't like to be judged yourself. That is hypocrisy. Yet you don't want to admit that. Just speaking real talk, which is not terrible opinions. To describe that in that way shows your judgmental biased. Once again, hypocrisy.

    Nice set up. I also found that merino gear does not wear well. but this year I bought some smart wool, merino blended with synthetics. These have the benefit of wool, but are harder wearing. I carry my passport in a small ziploc bag when I trave. I also carry photocopies of my important documents in a different pannier/bag to my original docs.
